Materials

Jewellery isn't just about gold or diamonds.

Handmade designer jewellery created from exciting materials.

COEUR DE LION jewellery is made exclusively from exquisite materials that can be used for a wide range of shapes and colours. Our materials also have to be extremely durable and resistant to wear and tear. This is the only way to guarantee that timelessly stunning designs are transformed into timelessly stunning jewellery.

  

Polaris resin and tiger’s eye are hard to beat when it comes to their colour effects and versatility. This is why Coeur de Lion is so keen to use these materials in their multi-colour optical creations. Furthermore, polaris resin can be finished seamlessly and so is not only beautifully shaped but also strong.

Glass has always been a feature of Coeur de Lion jewellery with some unique pieces incorporating exclusively hand worked glass.

  

 

Many of the COEUR DE LION statement pieces feature high quality European Crystals, creating light refracting, eye catching jewellery that simply sparkles. 

European Crystal Pearls are also utilised in the Coeur de Lion collection - these are simulated pearls that are made with a crystal core. Their unparalleled harmonious and lustrous shimmer is achieved using a unique coating technology.

    

Plus natural stones such as aventurine, haematite, onyx, quartz, howlite and many more feature in the newer collections adding an extra touch of luxury.

High quality natural freshwater pearls add a new dimension to Coeur de Lion jewellery for a premium finish.

    

A firm feature of COEUR DE LION jewellery is 316L stainless steel, polished or with gold or rose gold plating. It is a particularly high-calibre material that does not tarnish and is also very hard-wearing. This attractive metal is not only used in necklaces and bracelets but also features in the extension chains, the clasps and our OE seal of quality. The earring studs and hooks are made from either rhodium-plated sterling silver or 316L stainless steel.
